Gladio SC is an amp-like overdrive and preamp, designed to be the foundation of your tone. Touch-sensitive and dynamic, it responds like a real amp, shaping smooth, expressive breakup and rich harmonics.
The CLEAN knob lets you blend your guitar’s pure signal with the overdriven tone without lowering the gain. The result is greater clarity, natural note attack, and touch-sensitive dynamics that stay alive under your fingers.
Instead of running everything in series, Gladio SC keeps clean and driven signals working in parallel. This preserves openness, depth, and articulation, delivering a tone that feels wide, three-dimensional, and incredibly responsive.
The Compression toggle allows you to fine-tune the pedal’s feel and response. Go from smoother and more controlled to open, punchy, and expressive, adapting the drive character to your touch and your amp.
Gladio SC recreates the sensation of playing through two amps at once: one clean and one driven. The sound stays warm and saturated, yet every note retains definition, attack and harmonic depth.
